GROWING PAINS

Today's film was

The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012)

based on a young adult novel of the same name by the writer and director of this film. A one man show.

This is a coming of age film about an introverted kid. Hands up for all those who qualify! See this movie.

The kid finds other "misfits" to hook up with after a bad patch of isolating. This, in turn, leads to a life different than he expected for himself which, in turn, reveals old wounds as yet unhealed which will need fixing.

There is considerable gay content in the film very nicely done. Smart, good looking young actors. A nicely balanced cast of good and bad friends.

I liked it a lot. Sniffles at the end. I would be happy to see it again. A 4 out of Netflix5.
